How to enable pure DOS

After installing Windows XP/2000 or higher, if you want to boot to pure DOS mode, you can only use floppy disk, unlike WIN98 you can directly enter pure DOS mode. Oh, in the evening, I found a tool that can modify the Windows 2000/XP boot menu in a software download forum. With it, you can choose to enter the pure DOS mode at startup. Is it a good software?

Here is the download address of the software http://gd.pcdog.com/down/argzs2.exe

Next, let's talk about how to use it:

After installation, you can find that the Boot.ini (the default location is c:\\) file in the system has changed,

Look at the original Boot.ini, click "My Computer" - "Properties" -- "advanced" - "startup and repair" - "edit", pop

specific content:

[boot loader]
timeout = 30
default = multi (0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
has been changed to the following after installation:

[boot loader]

timeout=6

default=multi (0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\\ WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional&quo t; /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn

C:\\WINDOWS\\arboot\\dos\\ar.BIN="dwarf studio pure DOS mode"

C:\\WINDOWS\\arboot\\ Di\\dos.BIN="dwarf studio backup recovery"

You can see two more than the original one

One is "dwarf studio pure DOS mode" < Br>

The second is "Dwarf Studio Backup Recovery"

At the same time, the startup menu is generated at startup,

At this time, if you want to boot to pure DOS mode, you can use it on the keyboard. The cursor movement key selects the two new items mentioned earlier.

1. "Dwarf Studio Pure DOS Mode"

After selecting this, the next level option menu will appear. There are 5 options:

1MINI starts, minimizes startup. Can be partition management, such as formatting, etc., speed is very fast.

2 Load the MINI boot of the optical drive.

3 loading cache startup, support for optical drive.

4 loading cache startup, support for the mouse, can view the contents of the NTFS partition.

Is it cool? It seems to be back to the era of DOS systems, hehe! !
